While stationed at George AFB. Myself and a group of friends were walking to the BX. As we approached we noticed a young LT. approaching with a group of his friends. So we offered the customary salute.
I guess he wasn't satisfied with one of my friends salute and promptly chewed him out and ordered him to give him 100 salutes, which my friend began executing at once.
After the second salute with no response from the young LT. I pointed out to him that he is required to return each salute. Without any of us knowing... my squadron commander was watching the whole thing..
The LT. ordered me to keep quite and for him to proceed. At that point my commander came over and ordered the LT to return every salute in proper military fashion... and with every salute my friends smile got bigger and bigger!!! Hats off to the older wiser brass.
